    QFT. I was thinking her portion and ARK's would be reversed. Good for her, getting her college education paid. Not to mention having a chance at an emergency cash windfall by making a porn film or two in 5-10 years to capitalize on her 15 minutes of fame.

    Also, props to her for making money off this. If retarded bimbos like Lady Gaga can make money & get famous for horrible songs, why can't Rebecca Black?

    On a positive note, it's only a matter of time until crappy pop singers are replaced by robots:

    These are the reasons I find it not OK that a talentless little kid is making a killing off of something that's terrible. There are plenty of people with actual talent/skill that are a billion times more deserving of the exposure.

    It's just depressing that people would rather stare at a car wreck than attend an opera.

    I laughed a lot harder at "Which route should we take?" than I should have.

    To make it in this age you need to keep your target audience as the lowest common denominator. Think of the latest "hits" in entertainment recently and you'll notice this.

    Also a better analogy would be something like this vs. the next BIG. Fuck Opera.

    Oh I'm aware. I was saying it's depressing that people would rather watch someone do something poorly and make fun of them than watch someone do something exceptionally and appreciate/enjoy. It's ass fucking backwards.

    I think it's pretty straight forward. Bad things always summon the attention far more often than good things. This has always been the case, it is the case now, and it will always be the case. We are neither devolving nor advancing as a society (in the matter of tastes); there has never been a moment in time where good and refined tastes reigned supreme for the majority.

    So you should put down the vapors Miss Melly.

    This is how the internet does things, like a retard.

    Better to let a talentless 13 year old fade away into nothingness instead of making parodies, remixes and things along those lines since it was obviously a mediocre pop song, as all pop songs tend to be these days.

    Unfortunately, people would rather feed into the terribleness and basically make them (edit: them being the bad artist) get more exposure and more money. I agree that is is "ass fucking backwards."
